==History== SH 308 was designated on January 24, 1939, from the former SH 230 (now FM 60 in College Station) through the A&M campus along Spence Street to the former SH 307 (now FM 2347).<ref>{{cite web |archive-date=October 22, 2017 |date=January 23, 1939 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171022032838/https://publicdocs.txdot.gov/minord/MinuteOrderDocLib/003676256.pdf |title=Minutes |website=publicdocs.txdot.gov |publisher=Texas Department of Transportation |access-date=28 April 2023 |language=en-us |url-status=live |url=https://publicdocs.txdot.gov/minord/MinuteOrderDocLib/003676256.pdf}}</ref> On August 1, 1941, the on-campus routing was changed to Bizzell Street, and on September 7, 1943, the highway was extended north to its current terminus. On January 31, 1961, the portion south of FM 60, including the on-campus portion, was removed from the highway, leaving it in its current, truncated state. SH 307 was cancelled in that same minute order.<ref name="State Highway 308"/>
